Documentation

Samples

You can check some examples in samples folder.

Samples are built to WebGL (Javascript) and Hashlink targets, but you can try them on other compatible platforms too.

Requirements

You need a standard Haxe install, and the following libraries installed: heaps (from source), deepnightLibs (from source), hlsdl:

haxelib git heaps https://github.com/HeapsIO/heaps.git

haxelib git deepnightLibs https://github.com/deepnight/deepnightLibs.git

haxelib install hlsdl

Building samples

Open a folder in the samples folder (eg. samples\Generic - Generic - Read project) and run:

haxe build.hxml

You can also build all samples in one go. Go in samples folder and run:

haxe buildAll.hxml

Rebuild samples HXMLs

If you modify the API, you might need to rebuild samples HXMLs files themselves. In the root of the repo, run:

haxe genSamples.hxml

Unit tests

You can build and run unit tests manually using the following commands from the repository root.

JS/WebGL target

You will need Node interpreter to run the tests.

haxe tests\js.hxml

Neko target

You will need Neko VM interpreter to run the tests.

haxe tests\neko.hxml
